(i.e., the entire book) to the address: rue du Beffroi, 2, A. Bruxelles, M-r Jean Popoff. The matter is extremely important and admits not a moment's delay. Send it by express, hire a messenger and dispatch it specially to the Warsaw station. I will reimburse you for all expenses immediately by separate transfer, if you require it.

At the slightest opportunity, I request (this is a matter of such importance that it occurs once every two years) that you collect additional materials (sets of *Pravda* and *Severnaya Rabochaya Gazeta* [Northern Workers' Gazette] for 2 weeks, *Nasha Zarya* [Our Dawn] and choice specimens of liquidationist literature—consult with the editor of *Trudovaya Pravda* [Labor Pravda]341). In the same package. I hope you will not refuse. Articles by Bulkin and Martov in no. 3 of *Nasha Zarya*, articles by Axelrod on party reform—that is to say, revolution, *Stoykaya Mysl* [Steadfast Thought] no. 18, bourgeois newspapers of Petersburg evening of April 4, 1914 and morning of April 5, 1914, articles on the bloc of Populists with liquidationists in the insurance campaign. Everything you manage to get before the departure (evening, it seems) of the postal train on the Warsaw line.
